The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

We all seem to be in agreement. It was an excellent show and let die way before it's time. I've decided that if I really enjoy a show, it's often the kiss of death. I love the quirky, ensemble cast shows, and a great setting always helps. I really expected to see a lot of these stars in other television productions, but short of Mariska Hagartay who played Fisher Stephens crazy girlfriend, I've not seen many of them except in occasional cameo roles. What a shame.Key West, Northern Exposure, Gilmore Girls, and Veronica Mars... all great shows, all sadly gone before their time.Hear us, loud and clear, we want Key West on DVD..... please.

---"BUT does anyone know who the guy was singing in that episode? He was Jamaican? maybe but sang a beautiful haunting song as the storm came."--- I have never forgotten this show, especially the hurricane episode referenced above.That song was one of the most beautiful pieces of work I have ever heard and have tried many times to track down any information on it.Like everyone else here, here is to hoping for a DVD release of this gem.And please! If anyone knows anything about the song....msg me!!! Thank you

A short lived series which could have been a a wonderful story. The characters, while fictitious, were amalgums of many of the locals. It seemed to me, a citizen of Key West for, at that time three years, as if the characters were overly one dimensional..... but I did see traits of the characters in the locals. With a bit of nurturing, it could have been a good story. In short, I enjoyed this series, and wished it had had a longer life. (I am not sure but what I am the only person who remembers this show)The one thing that the series DID portray well, was the independence of the Florida Keys and the wide bredth of individuals who lived there.

Which is, unfortunately, mostly what succeeds on TV these days. Shows such as Key West are just too intelligent, and go over the head of Average Joe TV Viewer (or Average Joe TV Executive). With all the proliferation and specialization of TV channels these days, maybe some day we can have an "Intelligent TV Channel" where shows like these can flourish and those too dim to "get it" can just remove it from their channel rotation.Key West was smart, funny and *very* quirky. No fart jokes or pratfalls, which is probably why it didn't succeed; just a continuous, surreal humor. I didn't even mind that it starred the despicable Denise Crosby. It seemed fitting that she should not only end up in this loony bin, but be in charge of it.Any TV producers out there reading this -- there's an idea for you. Create an "Intelligent TV Channel", and give us shows like this, or Max Headroom, Brimstone, Cupid, etc. You could even call it that, as a dig at the mindless drivel that pours off the screen most of the time.
